After rolling into work a bit late today, I stepped off the elevator to the sound of pounding drums and cymbals (of course being obsessively photographed).
The lion then paraded around the office (with full accompanying banging) requesting lai see, packets of money traditionally given to unmarried relatives, junior employees, and other service people.
Nice way to start the day...
